Steno North American Fellowships is a transatlantic collaboration in clinical and health outcomes diabetes-related research, enhancing the synergies between the institutions for the benefit of people suffering from diabetes.
The partner institutions are Joslin Diabetes Center, University of Toronto, University of Michigan and the Steno Diabetes Centres in Denmark: Steno Diabetes Centre North Denmark, Steno Diabetes Center Aarhus, Steno Diabetes Center Odense, Steno Diabetes Center Zealand or Steno Diabetes Center Copenhagen.
The fellowship offers researchers, affiliated with one of the partnering institutions, the opportunity to dedicate from 3 months to 1.5 years to practice clinical and health outcomes diabetes-related research at one of the other transatlantic partner institutions mentioned above.
The purpose of the Steno North American Fellowships is to:
- Give the institutions/research communities the opportunity to exchange methods and ideas, obtain training on specific topics and share knowledge in an international research environment focused on clinical and translational diabetes research.
- Strengthen the transatlantic collaboration and clinical research on caring and treating diabetes patients, by enhancing the synergies across the partnering research institutions.
